Section 3: Enchanting Melodies of the Bewitching Beauty

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

I just hope you remember my name, and you owe me a favor. " Sakura threw a flirtatious glance at Lloyd and suddenly turned to walk into a dark alley.

Lloyd withdrew his hand and looked in front of him, only to find it was all blood

The psychological counseling office where Lloyd interned was even more bustling

Hello? May I ask who you are looking for?" Lloyd inquired politely

Liangliang's mother was suddenly startled, thinking that her child's old illness had recurred, possibly due to the excessive pressure from exams. She looked at her child with sorrow, feeling that it would be better if she did not push him to study.

"Got it, hurry up!" Liangliang grabbed a handful of popcorn and stuffed it into his mouth

"Why are you looking for me?" Lloyd suddenly asked this question, wanting to see how the other party would react

However, the suicide of Liangliang's parents, as well as the eerie song sung by Yingye, still left him with lingering doubts

Beep... beep... beep... the phone is busy, and I cannot get through at all

Lloyd gasped, and before he could react, the police had surrounded the area

"Tsk tsk tsk, Lloyd, you little rascal, you've really made a name for yourself this time!" said Dawson, a fellow intern consultant, as he lifted dumbbells to work on his biceps, his voice filled with jealousy. ... He was Lloyd's close friend at the firm, although they had not known each other for long ...

I did not expect this woman to speak first, a sweet and clear voice came over: "Hello, my name is Sakura. I heard that two very special newcomers have arrived at the psychological counseling office, so I came to take a look. You are quite an interesting newcomer; this is the first time I have met a newcomer who does not take the initiative to strike up a conversation with me."

Why does this man's silhouette look so familiar? It seems like I have seen him in the underground parking lot? Lloyd suddenly felt that something was amiss; he had a bad premonition

In this enchanting night, Yingye softly hums a tune, as if whispering to herself

When Lloyd finished giving his statement at the police station, it was already late at night

Sakura has vanished without a trace, disappearing from sight... In this alley, one can only see, through the faint moonlight in the night sky, that there seems to be a person lying among a pile of garbage...

Liangliang showed no signs of activity

Lloyd suddenly turned his head, but there was not a single shadow outside the classroom.

"May I ask where you are from?" Lloyd replied to Liangliang, but he already felt a slightly sticky liquid in his hand. However, he tried to remain composed, as he still could not believe that such a thing was happening

President ... ... actually. '' Lloyd was about to say something when he was stopped by the President with a gesture.

Some people have expressionless faces, as if the exam paper has drained their souls

Lloyd left the screening room, intending to call Liangliang's mother first to inform her that Liangliang's emotions had stabilized.

The next day, all the newspapers in the city reported: "The new psychological counselor Lloyd skillfully solved the case! Psychology leaves the murderer nowhere to escape!"

He hesitated for a moment and then said to Liangliang: "Come, give me some popcorn."

You are indeed humorous, truly deserving of being a rising star in the firm. Your president speaks highly of you! It seems you are not just a name without substance. What about your partner, Tang Sen? He is also an intern, right?" Sakurano led the way ahead, walking slowly.

"It's alright, please have a seat." The president's calm and magnetic voice always provides a sense of security

At this time, the frenzied reporters have already flocked to the office, seeking to interview Lloyd

"Tang Sen! Help me block them! Consider it a favor I owe you!" Lloyd said to Tang Sen, as he had to hide in the president's office to avoid the harassment of the reporters

Some people appear dejected, as if the invigilator is not a relative of theirs

The little rogue quickly put on the 3D glasses, made a face at the punk girl with his mouth, signaling her to stop causing a fuss, and then said: "Watch the movie! Look at that orc!"

The final day of the college entrance examination

Before long, a group of medical personnel and police rushed into the cinema

Thus, Lloyd flipped through the contact list and found Liangliang's father's phone number, but still no one answered

Hello... It's quite late, and a girl wandering around seems a bit unsafe, doesn't it? Moreover, you need to check on the new recruits at the office; you can come by tomorrow morning. There's no need to specifically come to the police station to look for me, right?" Lloyd was not dazzled by her beauty; instead, he raised the question quite rationally.

The other end of the phone was extremely hollow, and there was no sound from the surrounding environment, as if it were in a small, enclosed room. However, faintly, the sound of a woman's soft singing could be heard.

"I apologize for bothering you, President... I just need to take a step back for a while..." Lloyd said apologetically

"Liangliang, I will go to the restroom for a moment, so do not wander off," Lloyd said as he pulled Liangliang over and instructed him.

She is a very young woman, with bangs reminiscent of Cleopatra and long, straight black hair that cascades like a waterfall. In the dim light, there is a faintly dreamlike beauty about her

His breathing became rapid; he initially intended to perform first aid on Liangliang, but when he placed his hand in front of Liangliang's nose, the young man had already lost his breath

Lloyd swallowed hard and walked step by step towards that direction

Lloyd quickly searched the young man's body again, and indeed, the phone that recorded the video had also vanished! However, Liangliang's wallet was still in his pocket

Lloyd could not help but recall the nonsense that Liangliang used to say about ghosts, but as a consultant, it would truly be absurd to believe such things

Under the dim streetlight, Lloyd was waiting for a taxi alone, but he always felt as if a pair of eerie eyes were watching him from somewhere

A robust physique is essential to support a strong mind!" Tang Sen shook his eyebrows at Lloyd, feeling no sense of incongruity at all...

An hour later, both Lloyd's and Liangliang's parents felt something was amiss, so they entered the examination hall and arrived at his exam classroom

Liangliang! The exam is over, what do you want to buy? Or where do you want to go play? Tell your mother. Liangliang's mother leaned over to his side and said in a gentle tone, while also picking up his exam supplies, preparing to help him pack them into his pencil case

It is indeed a small world; that woman is the receptionist with a Shamate hairstyle from the internet café. She exclaimed in surprise, pulling her boyfriend beside her and shouting that it was an affront.

However, only Lloyd knows the truth of last night; this honor does not belong to him, nor does he desire it. On the contrary, if Sakurano intended to frame him, the events of last night would at least have caused him considerable trouble

"Alright, President..." Lloyd looked at the President's wise eyes and had no choice but to agree.

On a dark night of murder, with the wind high for arson. Strolling might lead to encountering something interesting, perhaps. Lloyd smirked; he was not afraid of Sakura's provocation

Who is so bold! Can't you behave a little while watching a movie? Do you know where I come from? The man next to her rolled up his sleeves, ready to throw a punch

Lloyd gritted his teeth tightly, not expecting that these villains would dare to commit such a violent act in public! He took out his phone, dialed 120 to call for an ambulance, and was about to dial 110 to report to the police.

Young people, remember, sometimes the truth and the process are not important; the result is what matters. So let this matter rest here. Once the wave of news has passed, you must double your efforts in your work. The president spoke earnestly, yet it sounded as if there were deeper meanings behind the words

Lloyd felt that something was amiss, so he gently pushed Liangliang, and the young man unexpectedly fell onto the woman beside him.

After all the afternoon exams had concluded, Lloyd and Liangliang's parents stood outside the examination hall, anxiously waiting for Liangliang

A cool breeze swept through the night, and Sakura began to dance lightly in the wind, like a songstress. As her beautiful long hair floated in the air, Lloyd noticed in the dim light that her earrings were shaped like cherry blossoms, very exquisite! They were remarkably similar to the earrings of the victim!

The examination hall after the college entrance examination is as desolate as it can be. However, the song mentioned by Liangliang, Lloyd faintly heard a woman singing while going upstairs

It is getting late, let's go eat, it's on me. With me around, don't think about any female ghosts anymore; if anyone dares to come out, I will take care of all of them!" Lloyd shook his fist and gave a knowing glance.

Lloyd hurriedly followed suit, and the subsequent situation sent chills down his spine

Some people are overjoyed, as if the question were set by their own family

The man lying in the garbage heap is wearing a brown jacket; he is none other than the man who was seen smoking in the underground parking lot, and also the one who hurriedly left the cinema where the incident occurred

Before he had the chance to go to the restroom, Lloyd was ready to turn back to the screening room to check on Liangliang. At that moment, his phone rang; it was a local landline number.

"Don't be angry, your father and I will leave now. Does that mean your teacher, Mr. Luo, will leave as well?" As soon as Liangliang's mother finished speaking, she quickly pulled her husband and left together

The scene after the college entrance examination is quite spectacular

The stylish black top paired with a short skirt complements each other perfectly, along with the exaggerated black silk stockings that seem to glow when matched with the knee-high boots. This woman, beneath her understated makeup, exudes an extremely avant-garde and bold allure

"It is not appropriate to ask a girl about her private matters, and as a counselor, there are certain topics that should not be inquired about. You should understand this professional code of conduct, shouldn't you?" Sakura turned her head and gave him a calm smile, clearly a refusal, yet her expression and tone sounded so gentle and pleasant.

Originally, Lloyd had planned to use various clues and reasoning to design traps and schemes to lure him out, but that mysterious woman, Sakura, inexplicably brought him here. And then the murderer simply fainted here, waiting for him to call the police

At that moment, a man wearing a brown jacket also emerged from the screening room, brushing past Lloyd. After a sudden turn at a corner, he vanished from Lloyd's sight.

Some people walk hurriedly, as if they are merely coming to attend an event

All of this is too strange; the underground parking lot previously appeared to be the scene of a murder, yet no evidence was left behind. The phone that recorded the video has also mysteriously disappeared from Liangliang's possession. However, even if the phone were still present, that video would not be sufficient to prove a murder. Lloyd was utterly perplexed.

At that moment, a woman walked across the street, smiling as she approached Lloyd.

Having witnessed Lloyd's skills, Liangliang felt a sense of security and nodded, asking, "Lao Ge, how about we grab a bite and quickly go watch World of Warcraft? This movie seems quite impressive!"

In a crowded cinema, after Lloyd and Liangliang took their seats in the screening room, Liangliang, holding a bucket of popcorn, shouted enthusiastically, occasionally exclaiming, "Get that guy!"

"Don't come near me! Someone wants to kill me! Everyone get away!" Liangliang raised his right hand and forcefully pushed his mother's hand away.

This made Lloyd feel somewhat displeased, as the term "newcomer" was repeated three times in a single sentence by Sakurano! He felt belittled!

"Tsk tsk tsk, the night is so beautiful, why don't you accompany me for a short walk?" After saying this, Yingye slightly raised her head, looking at the moon that was mostly obscured by clouds, and quietly smiled with her lips pressed together

Another call came in

"No problem, let's just grab a bite at the KFC near the cinema and then head to the event!" Lloyd smiled, realizing that once this young man's attention was diverted, his victim complex would ease a little.

Lloyd took a glance and was momentarily at a loss for words; wasn't this the little thug he had dealt with that night

He stood by the dimly lit street with his hands in his pockets, replaying the events of the past few days in his mind

Speaking of which, as a consultant, you shouldn't always be lifting dumbbells! Lloyd, who was burdened with worries, saw Dawson in a suit lifting dumbbells and felt that this scene looked quite off, so he couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

Such a myriad of faces, brushing past each other, yet still waiting for the light to shine through...

Lloyd feels quite unfamiliar with this piece; it is not a domestic ballad. However, with Sakura's figure, dance, and her singing voice, she is undoubtedly a top-tier diva

Lloyd stood there without making any effort to strike up a conversation. This was because the woman had already approached him, standing so close that he could even smell the faint fragrance emanating from her, not the scent of perfume, but a mysterious and delicate floral aroma

He hurried back to the screening room, where the audience was reacting with alternating gasps to the film. Lloyd sat back down next to Liangliang, who appeared very relaxed, reclining against the back of the chair.

The stunning woman named Sakura finished speaking and then burst into a giggle, yet her laughter carried a hint of disdain

Due to still wearing the 3D glasses, Lloyd could not see Liangliang's bright eyes, but he also did not see Liangliang eating popcorn

Lloyd sat right next to him, nudging him with his elbow, signaling him to tone it down a bit, after all, the fans of the several alliances sitting in front were all burly men

Only Bright was sitting there in a daze, holding a pencil in his hand, his whole body trembling incessantly, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans were desperately falling from his forehead

As soon as this man's 3D glasses were removed, he was left dumbfounded, wondering how it could be Lloyd again

"Because I know you are very special..." Ying Ye chuckled softly, her enchanting laughter containing many meanings. Moreover, her smile was not at all out of place in the deep night; instead, it resonated with the darkness, bringing a touch of liveliness while also carrying a hint of chilling terror.

Luo Ge, the man who killed the female ghost last night was just outside the classroom door, didn't you see? And there was a woman singing, she has been singing all this time, and it sounds beautiful. I think she must be very beautiful..." Liang Liang glanced outside the classroom, speaking in a daze, his body trembling slightly, unsure whether he was afraid or excited...

The president is an elegant gentleman in his early thirties, handsome and tall, with a high nose bridge. The air in the office is subtly infused with the scent of a successful man's cologne, and his voice carries a slight magnetism.

Sorry, the user you are trying to reach is currently watching a movie, please do not call again!" Lloyd teased, and with a flick of his finger, he hung up the phone

Are you Lloyd? This is the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Is the child named Liangliang with you? His parents have had an accident, both have fallen to their deaths, and it has currently been preliminarily determined as a suicide. Please bring the child back for a moment.

Hello! Who are you looking for?" Lloyd asked irritably, at this moment who still has the mood to joke around

Just as he was about to ask something, Sakura flashed him a wicked smile, exuding an air of seduction

That guy... let's not mention him. He is always mysteriously absent every day. By the way, your name is Sakura, so you must be of Japanese nationality, right? But how come your Chinese is so good? Lloyd followed behind her, noticing that her pace had slightly quickened, yet she remained light and composed, making it hard to tell if one wasn't paying attention

The smile of this woman conceals a queen-like aura, while her clear gaze carries a hint of barely concealed murderous intent

Lloyd crouched down and tested with his hand; the person still had a pulse, indicating that he had not been killed

Lloyd was left stunned there, what on earth is happening? Within a few hours, an entire family has been silenced!
